She was managing two shops before I met her. Apart from that, she also had a 9-to-5 job. She worked diligently and was always looking for opportunities to earn more. I must confess, that’s one of the reasons I tried so hard to win her over. It wasn’t easy, but after pursuing her for a few months, she said yes to my proposal, and we started dating.

We dated for only seven months before we got married. I didn’t want to waste time when the woman I wanted was right in front of me. It was after we got married that I realized the other side of being with an independent woman.

She would leave work, visit her two shops, and then come home. Sometimes she wouldn’t get home until after 9 p.m. On weekends, we both stayed home, prepared meals for the week, and spent a lot of time together—time we didn’t have during the week.

Just a few weeks ago, I was in the bedroom when she entered the hall. As soon as I heard her voice, I pretended to be asleep, just a ploy to have a little fun. She came in, looked at my face, and murmured, “You’re sleeping and didn’t lock the doors?”

I nearly responded but kept watching through squinted eyes. She took off her top and removed her bra, which was already unbuckled. She took off her skirt, and she wasn’t wearing any underwear, not even panties. She went through her side bag, picked up her underwear, and went into the bathroom.

I thought, “Hey, what’s happening?”

I see my wife get dressed every morning. She would never wear a skirt without underwear, let alone without panties. So what happened? Why did she come home without them?

I continued pretending to sleep until she came back from her bath, went to the hall for a while, and later came to bed. It took me days to bring it up. She said, “Ah, is this something to worry about? You mean I can’t take off my underwear when I’m uncomfortable?”

According to her, she took them off in the car because she was tired and itchy. I asked, “What about the bra? It was already unbuckled.” She answered, “Say what you want to say and stop beating around the bush. Are you suspecting me of something?”

She was enraged, but I remained calm. Ladies, please tell me something. Is this something I should not worry about? Especially considering there are times she asks me to unbuckle her bra for her? I’ve stopped fighting about it, but it gives me so much anxiety, sneaking around and trying to find answers.

Am I being insecure for no reason?
